Weekly Updates and News

Happy Friday (and you get a break for 2 weeks)! What a FUN week! Thank you to ALL of you for helping make this week magical for the kids! We truly enjoyed trying to catch our leprechaun, and the traps were so creative! The kids took such pride in sharing them with their classmates! I hope you all did not mind the rainbow treats I sent home on Thursday. I tried to do something small =) Our first pep rally was today. The kinders LOVED it along with the rest of the students! We want to continue to build our community and make sure ALL of the kids have fun together! We took our mid-module assessment in math today on measurement. I was happy to end with that before the break, and the kids shined! If you are interested in some extra work over the break, it would be awesome to have your child work with adding different combinations up to ten. Examples: 2 and 3 make 5, 4 and 3 make 7, 8 and 2 make 10. Please use this language as this is the language we will be using in class. We will be concentrating on these skills heavily when we return.The spelling test was exciting and successful today. It made them feel like big kids they said =)Thank you so much for helping your child with the spelling homework. Soon, it will become automatic for them. Everyone is catching on to our new writing unit on opinion writing. I am hoping to have something to show the week we get back from break. Please continue to read with your child over the break. They all are amazing readers, and I don't want them to lose steam. Thank you for helping make this the BEST year! I hope you all enjoy the break and get a little extra time with your child. I am super excited to hold my babies more! If you need me for anything, you can reach me on my cell phone. I cannot promise I will be checking emails often =) See you all in two weeks on April 4th. Happy Easter!
